"Zhifei," Ye Guangbai raised his face and shook his head slightly, "You have to know that Xiao Jiu may not fall in love with you for the rest of her life, she doesn't even know what love and affection are, have you thought about this possibility?" ”

As an elder, of course, I hope that my granddaughter will find someone to rely on.

Let him deceive others and take advantage of others because of this, the old man can't do it.

Moreover, if the other party didn't really care about Qin Jiu, it would be impossible for him to entrust Qin Jiu to Shen Zhifei with confidence.

"I don't care." Shen Zhifei stretched out his wine glass in front of the old man, "If you can trust me, give her to me." ”

His voice and tone were calm, without any exaggerated promises and assurances, and there was a determination and persistence between the lines.

Ye Guangbai was silent, staring into Shen Zhifei's eyes.

The young man in front of him was still very young, and there was no haze or hesitation in his eyes when he looked back.

He had seen that look many years ago.

At that time, the daughter brought back an excellent young man.

That night, he had a similar conversation with the young man.

Ye Guangbai stretched out his right hand and slowly picked up the wine glass.

Nearly twenty years have passed, and now that he is old, his fingers holding the cup are trembling slightly.

Stretching out his right hand, the old man solemnly touched the cup on Shen Zhifei's cup.

"Treat her well!"

Four words, just like back then.

Shen Zhifei didn't speak, just took back the cup and drank it all in one gulp.

Aromatic liquor, spicy, throat-warming, heart-warming.

Dangdang!

There was a knock on the door.

Outside the door was Qin Jiu's voice.

"It's ten minutes, can I come in?"

Sitting at the table, the old and the young all smiled, and there was a bit of similar pampering in that smile, and of course a little different.

One is like water, gentle and inclusive.

One is like wine, warm and long.

Shen Zhifei put down the wine glass and stood up, and walked over to help her open the door.

Qin Jiu walked in with a snowball, looked at him, and then looked at his grandfather.

I wanted to ask, but I swallowed it back.

After a while, Luo Lie and the others also returned to the private room, and everyone ate snacks and drank tea for a while, and then the scene ended.

When everyone walked to the door of the hotel, Qin Jiu deliberately fell behind, pulling the back of Shen Zhifei's T-shirt with his right hand.

The two stopped at the corner of the corridor, Shen Zhifei turned his face sideways, and Qin Jiu suppressed his voice.

"You're talking about me, aren't you?"

Shen Zhifei nodded.

"Say what?"

"Your grandfather asked me to take good care of you." There was some strange light flashing in the girl's eyes, and waiting for him to continue, Shen Zhifei curled the corners of his lips, "I agreed." ”

Qin Jiu blinked: "How long?" ”

Shen Zhifei took a light breath: "For a lifetime." ”

"But......" Qin Jiu tilted his head slightly, "I'm not ready to marry you yet." ”

"It's okay." Shen Zhifei raised his right hand and helped her remove a small piece of flower and leaf from her hair that she didn't know from, "I can wait." ”

"What if, I don't want to get married all the time?"

"Then I will accompany you and not get married."

Qin Jiu's eyes lit up and he nodded with satisfaction.

"I'm going to the imperial capital to compete the day after tomorrow."

"It just so happens that I'm going back to see grandma, I'll go back tomorrow and wait for you there."

Qin Jiu responded lightly, looking at him with apricot eyes.

"Would you like candy?"

"Okay."

Shen Zhifei smiled and stretched out his right hand.

Qin Jiu frowned slightly.

It is written in the novel, when the female protagonist says this kind of thing, the male protagonist will take the initiative to kiss the female protagonist.

It's just that of course she wouldn't have thought that the heroine in the novel said it in a coquettish tone, and her serious tone would not make people think crookedly.
